CloseI'm hoping to replace the system set for dreamwalker, and use a picture set system instead, and need help on putting on the text inside, and not put it over of course. Got any good suggestion for where to place, like with X and Y for the bottom of course.
Like this?
Just show a transparent message window, and show a picture. The message will always appear on top the the picture.
As for positioning... well, just guess random X and Y, and then go adjusting.
It's annoying, cause you have to use show picture/erase picture EVERY TIME a message is shown.

There are more efficient ways to do this. Once you find the X/Y, create a common event that shows/removes the message box picture at those coordinates based on whether a switch is on or off. Then all you ever have to do if you need to fix it is edit the common event.
Just use a 320x240 picture with your window on it shown in the middle of the screen (default position) and be done with it. If you need to adjust it is always easier to edit the picture in photoshop than to mess with the coordinates inside the program, as simple as it actually is.
Yeah i only need for the bottom of screen anyway. But you really didn't supply enough answer for a good X/Y placement.
Edit: Oh, I figured it out i guess, X: 100 Y: 200 on, it seems to work.
I properly need a x y solution to cover around the faceset too, but not over, of course. But I'll work on that, unless you give quick answer for the X Y direction. I properly will figure it out that too.

if you use the default Message commands to display the actual text content, it will automatically show on top of any and all pictures. you never have to worry about covering it up. that includes the faceset.
benos we can't tell you the values of X and Y cause we don't know what pictures you're using and where you wanna place them. :P
Just... try numbers. Test. Adjust.
